KSL Investigates: The ‘Recycling’ Fee That Gets People Duped At The Dump

Utah residents have been charged tens of thousands of dollars over the past several months at the Salt Lake County landfill to dispose of one thing: Mattresses. If you roll-up to the landfill gate, there is a sign clearly posted that you will be charged $15 per mattress or box spring, on top of the regular fee to enter the dump. KSL Investigators decided to see why this was the case, and found some interesting details.

Why use a brand new mattress? I am sure if you had asked your viewers someone would have given you one.
